100
Sharpness, definition, detail, and resolution are all other names for this.
What is recorded detail or spatial resolution?
100
Recorded detail increases when the OID does this.
What is decreases?
100
This is the other abbreviation for SID.
What is TFD?
100
This is the other abbreviation for OID.
What is OFD?
100
This is the term for distortion caused by improper alignment of the tube or body part.
What is elongation?
200
This is the definition of contrast.
What is the difference in radiographic density between adjacent portions of an image?
200
This is what controls the x-ray beam penetrating power.
What is kVp?
200
When the OID increases, magnification will do this.
What is increase?
200
This is what the "I" and the "D" stand for in the inverse square law formula.
What is Intensity of the x-ray beam and SID (distance)?
200
This is the term for an overall increase in density which makes the image appear as though it is covered by a gray veil.
What is fog?
300
This is the definition of distortion.
What is the differences between the actual subject and its radiographic image?
300
Density is primarily controlled by which factor?
What is mAs?
300
When the SID increases, the intensity of the x-ray beam does this.
What is decreases?
300
This is the mass density of a body part.
What is tissue density?
300
Fast IR systems combined with short exposure times will create too few photons will cause this, which causes a grainy appearance on the film.
What is quantum mottle?
400
The focal spot is the area of the target where these strike.
What are electrons?
400
This will alter the quantity of exposure to the IR.
What is the mA, time, or mAs?
400
True or False. The SID can affect radiographic density when increased or decreased.
What is true?
400
This is the definition of penumbra.
What is unsharp edges of the anatomic image referred to as blur?
400
This is the scale of contrast with considerable differences in the gray scale with abrupt density changes.
What is short-scale contrast?
500
These are the sizes of the large and small focal spot.
What is 0.6mm for the small focal spot and 1.2mm for the large focal spot?
500
This is the definition of density.
What is the overall darkness or blackness of the radiograph?
500
When the OID is decreased, the penumbra will do this.
What is decrease?
500
This is the other name for size distortion.
What is magnification?
500
These are the 4 primary factors that affect radiographic quality.
What is density, contrast, distortion, and recorded detail?
